Sir, you are a very tallented and exellent musician.

Personally I think this version is kinda slow and "technical".... the freshness of that song is missing here, it sounds even boring.
-
after months of searching, i found this video again! oh wow..it's nice to sleep after a delightful atmosphere of ragtime.. oh wow.. such wonderful version!
-
@marcelinopiano u can say that again! X'(

Wow!! He is very very good...I like the tempo and the style...¡PERFECT! Very good rubato :D
-
Very nice to hear it played at the same tempo that Scott Joplin used, as heard on piano rolls.
Thank-you for posting this one.

Rest in Peace, John

Moim zdaniem przerost formy nad teścią. Utwór zatracił właściwy dla Joplina styl. Za dużo ozdobników, szkoda synkopacji, całość nie trzyma się kupy. Gdzieś giną wyraźne motywy, Nie podoba mi się też "kombinowanie" z tempem i głośnością. Ragtime z definicji nawiązuje do utworów tanecznych, a tej interpretacji nie da się ni w ząb zatańczyć, Można to wykonanie potraktować jako "wariację na temat Easy Winners". To nie jest nowa interpretacja. To jest nowa wersja.

He has his own CD for sale if anyone's interested. "Joplin - The Greatest Hits Vol. 1", and it has 29 favorite joplin tunes. I'm not sure if it's still available, as I bought a copy several years ago.
One of my favorite rags to listen to and play. 5*

Wonderful! This is the way ragtime was meant to be played. Everyone should put a little of their own into a performance of a rag. I had never heard of John until I saw this video, but he certainly seemed to really have ragtime down. A very stately version of my favorite Joplin rag. So sorry to hear he's not with us anymore. Thanks for sharing.

I always wanted to have an effortless knowledge of the piano like this, but never found to put in the time. I definitely love hearing it. :) Thanks for posting!
